About this audiobook
Arthur Conan Doyle
Arthur Conan Doyle was born in 1859. He trained to be a doctor at Edinburgh University and eventually set up a medical practice in Southsea. During the quiet periods between patients, he turned his hand to writing, producing historical novels such as Micah Clarke and adventure yarns including The Lost World, as well as four novels and fifty-six stories involving his most celebrated creations, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Doyle was knighted in 1902. In later life he devoted much of his time to his belief in Spiritualism, using his writing and celebrity as a means of providing funds to support activities in this field. He died in 1930.

Reviews for A Case of Identity

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A young woman whose fiance disappeared on the day of their wedding asks Sherlock Holmes for help finding the missing man. Then her young stepfather tries to talk Holmes out of investigating the case. The young woman’s story, Holmes’s observations, and an inquiry or two are all the great detective needs to deduce what happened to the missing man.This seems to be one of Holmes’s most frustrating cases. While he solved the mystery, the responsible party hadn’t broken any laws and couldn’t be brought to justice. The solution to the problem is unusual enough that I remembered it as soon as the young woman started telling her story. Conan Doyle was certainly creative!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5No mystery here, I figured it out at the beginning but a fairly even read nonetheless.
